Wolverine and Gambit are great fun.

Just beat the HAARP mission. Jesus wolverine is god in this game. Pratty much every enemy that isn't physical resistant dies in one hit to his super slash attack, bosses and sentinels 3-4.

I'll gimmick up his trademark quote in a reply, but the man is the best at what he does.

Fucking HATE the puzzles. Oh just fought through this level and got to a chasm I can't cross because I don't have the right character currently in my party. Totally my fault that I didn't see this coming with no warning whatsoever. Time to go all the way back to an Xtraction point and switch party members. Fuck Iceman. Nude ice sculpture with bandana. Ker-GAY.

"...But it's impossible to see it coming. There's no relation between cause and effect. Why do so many game developers fail to realize this?" -- Next Generation Magazine, every game except Mario 64, circa 1995.

???? [Beast is] the same furry blue ape he's always been. The only time he's been human was in the Juggernaught flashback.

Oh. I'm better than that, usually. I... I don't know what to say.

and that X-treme one where they're all teenagers did it with...Shadowcat again.

Ha ha, they did an X-Man cartoon/comic where they were all teenagers? That had to be fantastic. Was Teen Wolverine in it? Who needs claws that cut with that much angst?

Why does every recent incarnation of the Xmen do this? Start us out with the lamest characters and hold out the cool ones. Everybody hates Cyclops, but we always get him first. Gambit? Two movies and still no-show. Brief flash of his name on a computer, ha ha you cockteases. The makers of the first movie asked themselves "Out of all the xmen villains, which ones would make for the coolest fight scenes?" and came up with Toad, Sabertooth, and Mystique (who could replicate wolverine's claws?). Brilliant. The interchangeable second movie added....a wolverine clone...again.

Yeah, even if they did Colossus badly he'd still be great. If he was like Dolph Lundgren in Rocky IV and could only speak in broken English everyone would still be happy that he was around. How hard is it to paint a somebody with metallic paint and use awkward Russian accents? I recall that the original Star Trek was able to accomplish both of these things 40 years ago.

Did he ever do anything useful before he became archangel? He pretty much just flew around while everyone else fought, occasionally catching someone if they fell from a tall building and jean or rogue or nightcrawler or iceman or storm weren't around to do it instead.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong -- and I fully expect there to be images posted below if he beat up Mysterio at one point -- but you're right, he never did anything except be rich and try to get with Jean before she picked Cyclops that I remember. Getting a blue face and metallic wings was the best thing for him.

Are you playing the PS2 version, or did the PC port come out?
